1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Pulmonary segmentectomy for small non-palpable tumors, such as lung cancer or pulmonary metastasis, is challenging owing to possible insufficient surgical margins. Particularly, extensive segmentectomy beyond the second lobe may be required to obtain a sufficient surgical margin for a tumor adjacent to an incomplete interlobar fissure. Radiofrequency identification (RFID) marking systems have proven beneficial for detecting small lung tumors during surgery. Herein, we present two representative cases of complex segmentectomy (left-side video-assisted thoracoscopic extended S
